No song should be longer than 2 minutes unless it’s about a rock lobster, then it can be as long as it needs to be.

Worst part of going to the dentist is when they make you wear those Guy Fieri sunglasses. So humiliating.

I am completely baffled by the stranglehold that mahjong has on my library’s community and staff.

Most days I don’t feel like I contribute anything meaningful to workplace conversations but not today. Today I told my coworker all about the Jesse White Tumblers.

Most bars have pretty good NA options now but every so often it is just like, hey lemme get one of those o’douls that have been here since the 90s.

Sometimes I wander onto Threads to see what insane people are talking about. Right now, it’s an absurd amount of posts calling 150k a year a pathetic salary.

You want to work in a public library because you love to read? Ok, how do you feel about getting yelled at because the restrooms have free tampons in them?

Every single person who’s mad at Pritzker about the Bears is also someone who complains nonstop about paying taxes.

action items for library lovers: - go to library - run for library board - write letters of support that explain why you love the staff, space, programs, access to collections - advocate for legislation like HB5236 in IL to hold publishers accountable for charging high costs to license eMaterials

Being an introvert is so stupid because what do you mean I had a nice time hanging out with people I love all weekend and now I’m exhausted and cranky?

Nothing more annoying than when a thing you think is just ok becomes the new thing everyone loses their minds over. This is a post about Obsession.

Before last week, I had never in my life heard of anyone using MDW as shorthand for Memorial Day weekend. How did so many people and places collectively decide to start doing that this year?

The rooms are occupied by my own unresolved trauma? Don’t care. Still into it.

I simply do not get Backrooms as a horror movie. If I found some weird, hidden area of my library, I would be so delighted. No patrons, no co-workers, just me and an endless labyrinth of empty rooms. It wouldn’t bother me that the rooms are, like, poorly lit or oddly shaped or whatever. That’s fine.

There are only two types of drivers on Division St: people going 50 mph and not stopping at red lights and people going 10 mph for no reason.

There are several shirts like this with the logo and a random thing: cowboy boots, a garden gnome, a teddy bear. Why? Who is this for?

Okay which one of you did this?
Instagram account called “sadlibrarykitchen” and there is white text on a black background that reads “ sad kitchens, and break rooms of libraries. Submit yours for rating via DM. Also submissions anonymous even though it’s an honor to be here.”

There’s just something about 2010s comedies. They were made to be watched inside a holiday inn express.

You shouldn’t be allowed to log in to Netflix on a hotel tv. Hotels aren’t for watching stuff you like. They’re for Storage Wars and the Office.

TACO is such an unhinged thing to say when the thing he is “chickening out” on is nuclear war.
